Ben Shapiro: Data Doesn't Support Law Enforcement Being a Threat to Black People
I'm warning people now that what happens in the George Floyd case with Derek Chauvin... They should be warned up front. I want this police officer punished. I think everyone wants this police officer punished. The defense is going to make a case that the police officer is not responsible for George Floyd's death in exactly the same way that the New York police officers made the case that they weren't responsible for Eric Garner's death. The initial autopsy tends to support that. What that suggests is not that Derek Chauvin is good or clean or decent, but if you're going to charge him with murder, that's a hard charge to make on a legal level.

The number one factor in allowing kids to rise is not even having a father in the home; it's how many fathers there are in the community. You can have a single mom, but if there are a lot of male father figures around, that helps fill in the gap.

How Ben Shapiro Would Improve Outcomes for Kids Growing Up in Poor Communities
There were two moments where I saw an opportunity for us to come together, and one of them was the moment the COVID-19 lockdown happened. To me, it was very similar to right after 9/11 where everybody was confronted with their own mortality. 'Holy shit.
